So I've done some testing. A LOT actually, and I have a very good handle on how nearly all settings work (Still iffy on Island Curve).
I set up a Dedicated Server. I've also streamed the ENTIRE process (though I cut the stream hours ago to DL the ADK.) Here's my screenshot (ignore the mosas, been tweaking spawns. Added all SE characters in, working on eggs. Will get around to that tomorrow. In the meantime, here are 2 pieces of info: A- my stream is under the same twitch name as here if you have questions regarding map generation and how the values influence a seed, or to see the current map and how things turned out with a great deal of variety and size. And B- Here's the Game.ini I am using for this map in attachment: (You can ignore the spawners, they need tweaked and the engrams can also be ignored, that's just for solo tribes to be viable while we screw around.)
Also, on stream is a one-button link (Look for the ARK symbol, it's all below that) to join and test it out yourself.
If anyone can figure one problem for me, would be great: I CANNOT get the perfect division of rivers/flat land/mountains we have and STILL have oceans. I have to set my landscape radius too high, or else I lose too much of what I love with this type of map. Thus the crazy mosa spawners lol (again, needs fixed.)
But yeah, I've gotten a good handle on this, just don't have endless time to answer forum posts and it's easier on the stream, i'm basically always there. Be starting back up in 10 minutes (been at this since release, need a shower before I go back.) If you have questions, I'll answer what I can.
